Procedures:
protective equipment when entering confined areas where potential for exposure to vapors or
products exist.
Unusual Fire and Closed containers may rupture due to build-up of pressure when exposed to extreme heat.

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Accidental Release Avoid contact with material. Persons not wearing appropriate protective equipment should be
Measures:
excluded until the spill is cleaned up. Stop spill at source, pump liquid to salvage container.
Remaining liquid may be taken up on clay, diatomaceous earth, or other absorbent. Treat with 3-8%
concentration of ammonium hydroxide or 5-10% sodium carbonate. Add 10 parts neutralizing
solution/part isocyanate. Let stand 48 hours.
Section 7: Handling and Storage
Handling & Storage Prevent all skin and eye contact. Avoid breathing vapors. Re-seal partially used containers. Wash
Precautions:
with soap and water before eating or drinking. Protect from moisture contamination. Exothermic
generation of carbon dioxide may cause dangerous pressure. Keep away from all ignitable sources as
well as extreme heat.
Section 8: Exposure Control/Personal Protection
Ventilation: Adequate ventilation required. Local exhaust may be required in some areas. Special exhausting generally not
required. Mechanical exhaust usually adequate.
Respiratory Protection: Respiratory masks should be worn at all times when adequate ventilation does not exist. A NIOSH/MSHA
respirator is acceptable.
Eye Protection: Chemical tight goggles; full face shield if splashing is possible.
Skin Protection: Coveralls and impervious foot covering is recommended.
Other Protective Clothing Use impervious gloves, neoprene or rubber.
or Equipment:
Work/ Hygienic Practices: Good air flow in working area. Eyewash station and safety shower should be available. Gloves and respiratory
equipment should be worn at all times.
